The effect of epigallocatechin gallate on laying performance, egg quality, immune status, antioxidant capacity, and hepatic metabolome of laying ducks reared in high temperature condition
In conclusion, 300 mg/kg dietary EGCG showed protection effects on the laying ducks reared in high temperature by improving the immune and antioxidant capacities, which contributed to the increase of laying performance of ducks. The potential mechanism could be that EGCG modulate the synthesis of key metabolites and associated metabolic pathways.PMID:37921498 | DOI:10.1080/01652176.2023.2280041 (Source: Veterinary Quarterly)

Tropinone reductase: A comprehensive review on its role as the key enzyme in tropane alkaloids biosynthesis
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Oct 13:127377. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127377. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTAs, including hyoscyamine and scopolamine, were used to treat neuromuscular disorders ranging from nerve agent poisoning to Parkinson's disease. Tropinone reductase I (TR-I; EC 1.1.1.206) catalyzed the conversion of tropinone into tropine in the biosynthesis of TAs, directing the metabolic flow towards hyoscyamine and scopolamine. Tropinone reductase II (TR-II; EC 1.1.1.236) was responsible for the conversion of tropinone into pseudotropine, diverting the metabolic flux towards calystegine A3. The regulation of meta...

Viral inhibitory potential of hyoscyamine in Japanese encephalitis virus –infected embryonated chicken eggs involving multiple signaling pathways
In this study, we investigated the antiviral effect of hyoscyamine against JEV and its immunomodulatory activity in embryonated chicken eggs. Pretreatment with hyoscyamine sulphate resulted in a significant decrease in the viral load in both chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) and brain tissues at 48 and 96  hours postinfection.In silico studies showed stable binding and interaction between hyoscyamine and non-structural protein 5 (NS5), suggesting that this could be the basis of its antiviral effect. Embryonated eggs pretreated with hyoscyamine sulphate showed upregulation of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), TLR7, TLR8, interleuk...

Hyoscyamine induces developmental toxicity by disrupting metabolism in zebrafish embryo (Danio rerio)
In this study, an untargeted metabolomics approach was used to investigate the toxic mechanisms of hyoscyamine in zebrafish embryos. The LC10 and MNLC of hyoscyamine in zebrafish embryos were determined to be 350 and 313 μg/mL, respectively. Moreover, hyoscyamine exposure increased the accumulation of ROS and MDA, and altered the activity of antioxidant enzymes (CAT, SOD, and GSH) in zebrafish embryos. After exposure, the embryos were extracted, derivatized and analyzed by UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-HRMS for 3551 metabolites to identify 38 significantly changed metabolites based on the VIP, p value, and fold change results. Metabol...

The evolutionary pattern of cocaine and hyoscyamine biosynthesis provides strategies to produce tropane alkaloids
Chembiochem. 2023 May 30:e202300234. doi: 10.1002/cbic.202300234. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCocaine and hyoscyamine are two tropane alkaloids (TA) from Erythroxylaceae and Solanaceae, respectively. These famous compounds possess anticholinergic properties that can be used to treat neuromuscular disorders. While the hyoscyamine biosynthetic pathway has been fully elucidated allowing its de novo synthesis in yeast, the cocaine pathway remained partially elucidated. Recently, the Huang research group has completed the cocaine biosynthetic route by characterizing its two missing enzymes. This allowed transferring this whol...
